The first and only book to ever be written by a member of America’s most secret military unit\u2015an explosive and unlikely story of immigration, service, and sacrifice.<\/span><\/p>\n Inside our military is a team of operators whose work is so secretive that the name of the unit itself is classified. Highly-trained in warfare, self-defense, infiltration, and deep surveillance, “the Unit,” as the Department of Defense has asked us to refer to it, has been responsible for preventing dozens of terrorist attacks in the Western world. Never before has a member of this unit shared their story\u2014until now.<\/p>\n From Adam Gamal, one of the only Muslim Arab Americans to serve inside \u201cthe Unit,” comes an incisive firsthand account of our nation\u2019s most secretive military group.
